1992 Ford Sierra LX review from UK and Ireland
"A comfortable, economical, indestructible workhorse"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rear light cluster suffered corrosion, cheap to fix.
1 battery.
Apart from tyres, exhausts (only on its third) and one set of shox at 75K, it's bombproof and still gives 40mpg when driven gently.
General comments?
Dynamically prehistoric, but when you want to get from A to B in great comfort, with reliability and use little fuel it can't be beaten.
One of the last Fords (or any car) that you can easily service. Apart from cambelt changes it never saw a dealer from 36k to 148k, and I'm a mechanical dunce...
